the location is quite bad as it is frustrating to get to the sukhumvit area, where most of the places are located. some taxi drivers don't recognize the area, and some refuse to drive you home. fortunately it is right in front of the mrt bang-o station (blue line) and if you are a tourist, the location wouldn't matter at all. regarding the terrible traffic of bangkok, this area has relatively less traffic than other areas. but still it has heavy traffic, inconvenient road system and dirty roads. but this would be the chronic problem of thailand, not of this condominium. you will have a hard time grabbing a taxi when it rains all of a sudden-which will always do in bangkok- will make your life hard. it is very bothering and hot to transfer metro in bangkok, and most of the time your only option for transportation will be taxi (or motor taxi) which will make you furious whenever it rains. (and the prices for the taxis go up when it rains)
some bugs often appear in the room, but again it is the chronic problem of thailand. it is harder to find a room that has no bug appearance in thailand. still was very irritated by the bugs. also i find the room lacking in sound insulation, i had to hear weird pipe sound all the time. the kitchen was so small and cooking in this room is not recommended. very good room condition other than that.
no grocery shop in a walking distance. there is a 7-eleven on first floor, which is a lifesaver.
host was generally nice and replying fast, but was not punctual most of the times. nice guy from china.
staff members of the condominium are very inflexible. definitely not resident friendly management. this may also be common problem of thailand in my opinion.
Most of the problems were not caused by the room itself.
the room itself was amazing regarding the rate of this room, and i wish to visit again later.
Overall, this place has provided massive comfort physically and psychologically whilst i stay in thailand for 3 months.
Thank you host for the beautiful memories in bangkok!
